The Lounge

We focus on the local, craft, artisanal aspects of our bourbons, beers and cigars in a comfortable lounge environment. Listen to jazz on vinyl, sit in your leather chair, sip your handcrafted cocktail or fine bourbon, and relax away from the grind of your day. Only a mile away from downtown Louisville, but a world away from your worries.

The Bites

The Rules

1: If you're looking for a Bud Light Lime, a shot of Jagermeister, raspberry vodka slammers or the clinking of balls on a pool table, there's a place for you right down the block. This ain't it.

2: Be patient. Every cocktail is handmade when you order. This takes longer, but you get a higher quality drink, too.

3: If you can dream it, think it, taste it, see it, and want to try it, tell us and we'll try to make it happen. Really.

4: We're about bourbon, the best cocktails we can make, the finest locally made craft beer, wine, and wine education. And if you'd like a premium hand rolled cigar to enhance your experience, that's right next door.

Jeff Mouttet

Jeff is the owner/operator at Riverside Cigars, which he conceived and founded in 2011 in response to the lack of boutique cigars and cigar education in the Louisville area. Well, that, and he was tired of arguing everyday after 22 years in the auto business. After the business next door failed in 2012, he started planning what he would do if he could ever get his hands on the 2,110 square feet next door to the cigar shop. Let's just put it this way. Your jazz on vinyl, your bourbon in a glass, your premium cigar in hand. Want to know more? Come on by and see what we have for you.

Sara McCall Mouttet

Sara is Jeff’s better, younger half and co-owner of Match Cigar Bar. She is a Louisville native and has spent most of her life living in the area. Sara attended Louisville Collegiate School followed by the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Her background includes sales, advertising and design. Sara was influential in the opening of Riverside Cigars with Jeff in 2011. Being a wine lover more than a cigar connoisseur, she figured why not launch ANOTHER, more fitting venture while they were on a roll.

Sara is responsible for the look, feel and atmosphere in Match, including the comfy leather chairs in the lounge, custom-made tabletops of reclaimed wood from the Wild Turkey distillery, and unique bar stools formed from bourbon barrel staves. She is also the resident “hostess with the mostess” and would love for you to stop by and enjoy a handcrafted cocktail or glass of “Chardy” with her.
